Get header and footer text

Aspose.Slides Product Family
1

In Apose.Slides 7.8 there were properties to directly get the text content of headers and footers.


.HeaderFooter.FooterText
.HeaderFooter.HeaderText

Using 14.7.0.0 I cannot find a way to get the text of the headers and footers. The HeaderFooterManager only has a SetFooterText method.

How do I get the text?

Thanks.

I found a method to get the text of the header and footer using Aspose.Slides 14.7.


Dim oPresentation As New Presentation(“my.pptx”)
For Each oSlide As Slide In oPresentation.Slides
For Each oShape As Shape In oSlide.Shapes
If oShape.Placeholder IsNot Nothing AndAlso (oShape.Placeholder.Type = PlaceholderType.Header Or oShape.Placeholder.Type = PlaceholderType.Footer) Then
Dim str As String = CType(oShape, IAutoShape).TextFrame.Text
End If
Next
Next
